The Plenum is a regular meeting of all people involved with the space to talk about things, and decide stuff.

If you have stuff to add, go right ahead! Please sign your points with your name (by adding a "--~~~~" after your text).

Preamble

  • The Plenum is an institution to decide on what the space should look like, physically and in other ways, such as virtually.
  • Things concerning the space should be discussed at a plenum.
  • Everyone who's there can participate in that process, member or otherwise.
  • Everyone can head a plenum, no need for board members to do that.
  • Topics should ideally be announced on the Plenum wiki page beforehand
  • The Plenum should be held in a language that everyone participating understands.

Next Plenum: Sunday, November 25th, 2018, after the cleanup that starts at 11am.

Status of our space

Let's show some details in case somebody missed that the last time and give an update on the status

  • The outside particle sensor is kinda broken. I (Uli) took it from the wall today (2018-11-18) since the USB power cable was already disconnected since 4 days (at least the logs didn't show any results since then) and had a closer look on it. It is pretty dirty and German and I tried to disassemble and clean it, but the box cannot be opened without destroying it. So my last try was to use some compressed air to clean blow it - and it seemed to work =)
    • Nevertheless, I would plead to order a new spare part [1]. Please give me a notice before ordering, cause I would also be interested in ordering at least one, so maybe it's worth sharing shipping costs.
    • Currently the particle sensor is lying inside on the soldering table to test whether it still works after a couple of days, then I might either put it outside again, or replace it with a new sensor before putting it outside again.
  • unfortunately the tip of the soldering-iron is kinda messed-up. for my scope of application it is still good enough, but I (Uli again) recently heard some complaints and the wish to replace it. since it is highly probable, that I messed it up during my soldering learning sessions, I would be willing to sponsor a new tip, when we order a new one. if we have a spare one left, I would be interested in learning how to replace it, if someone got time for that.

Things to Buy

Things to buy for projects related to the space.

  • We might have the opportunity to receive a rack from the soon to be replaced SuperMUC Phase 2 supercomputer from the LRZ through Ruben who vists the lab on Occasion. Apperently, they will trash the hardware otherwise, so I'm assuming it'd be free. Asking whether I should express interest in the MuMaLab's name or not. (Bennet)
